Yep, you can paint them. Use good paint and the least you can get by
with. Then get a postal scale and weigh each blade. Sand the ends
(tips) of the heavy blades until they equal the lightest one. Take
care, Larry, N1345L

Why paint it?
The paint may come off with time and rain and you could have balance problems unless you are very careful. If you are really into painting the prop I would check with Warp Drive first.

Perhaps we like things to look nice, better than that black primer Warp
Drive uses. Plus there is the advisability/safety factor. A black prop
is totally invisible when spinning. And, I did talk to Warp Drive,
Duane me to do exactly what I described, i.e., use good paint, as little
as possible and balance it afterwards. Take care, Larry N1345L

I agree with Larry. My black Warp Drive prop was nearly invisible from the
front when ideling. I painted white "safety strips" on the tip end on the
front side. From the safety point of view, this made all the difference in
the world.
